Zaher Rezai

Gardener, open the garden door;

I'm not a flower thief,

I myself turned pink,

I don't go looking

of any flower

These verses were found on a page of the notebook of Zaher Rezai, a boy who fled the war that has tormented Afghanistan for years, to die in search of his freedom in Via Orlanda in Mestre.

The wood is dedicated to this boy who at the age of 13 set out on a journey in search of a new home, but who on 10 December 2008, once disembarked from the ship in the port of Venice, grabbed under a truck to evade the border, to then fall exhausted and end his short life in Mestre.

In his backpack, the diary and some objects were found, including a plastic lion cub, which accompanied him on his journey and which now tell us his story.

Inside the forest, a sculpture-installation by Maestro Luigi Gardenal was created which collects the words and images of little Zahe's notebook
